CORRELATION MATRIX

This gene to gene correlation matrix is part of an expression analysis from the Bioinformatics Group, CSIRO Livestock Industries in Australia. It indicates the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two random variables on a scale of negative one to one. The matrix contains a subset of the top 100 cancer genes with thick lines indicating the following blocks: A - extracellular matrix, B - nucleus and cell progression, C - actin cytoskeleton, D - fatty acid metabolism, and E - glutamine/glutathioine/oxidative.
